At the International Tourism Gastronomy Culture Festival - Nghe An 2019, visitors have an opportunity to enjoy 50 eel dishes by 25 famous chefs and artisans from across the country.
According to food experts, Nghe An’s eel dishes are not much different than eel dishes in other provinces; what makes the difference is the processing. Eels chosen to prepare dishes are usually fresh-eel, uneven size, and bright yellow. Eels must be processed immediately after being purchased and must be used up the same day, so that the eel meat will remain delicious, sweet, firm and cool.
